Tanabe Sustec Pro-C Camber Kit needed?

Hey everyone

I'm about to order some tanabe sustec pro-c from lou in a few days.

My drop is not going to be slammed. Just enough to get rid of the wheel gap. I Was wondering if I would NEED the camber kits? I want even wear on my tires and good handling.

Any information would be great!

it depends on how low you drop it. As you said, if you wanna slam it you need camber kit, unless you wanna just leave it as it is with - camber and uneven tire wear.

If you drop it enough to look good, you'll need a camber kit front and might as well get back while your at it since you can get a deal on both. Burned a set of Toyo Proxies early up front with my modest drop.

I have what I consider a mild drop on the same coils and I needed camber kits both front and rear to align within spec and wear tires reasonably. I'm not slammed at all.

I have these coils at the most "slammed" setting, I have no camber kit, the car aligned just fine, and my tires wore fine.
